Giving credit where credit is due...
COMCAST
I have 2 digial boxes in the house and Internet.
With many of the upper stations going to Digital (CNN, and the like) and I have older cable televisions, Comcast is giving each customer 2 Mini-digital-modules to support seeing channels above channel 7 up to 66 that will be converted to digital channels from the old analog style.
(OK... my 1988 TV still works)
SO I called to get the two boxes (one will go into the shop... shhhhh don't tell anyone).
I went to pick up the box and the Customer Service person is looking at my bill making faces and she said.... "How would you like to save some money?"
She said that the package configuration was horrible... If you get the phone, you get free digital boxes, free phone, free HBO and will cut the bill around $25-$30 a month and if they charge the setup fee (29.99) just give her a call and she will remove it from the bill...
so I walk out of the store with a phone number, and several new toys witha cheaper bill...

Delta Faucet
SO then later on Saturday (yesterday) the delta faucet that I installed 2 years ago, bit the dust... I went to Ace hardware, bought a new one for 159. + tax and replace it.... there on the box is the words LIFETIME WARRENTEE and a number.. I called ad beedamned if the fellow on the end of the line says that there was problems with it, sorry for the problem, gave me a case number and as soon as the get the broken one, a check for the faucet, mass tax and shipping will be on its way within a week.
It was a very good Thanksgiving...
